Storm to slam east Coast and Gulf of Mexico called Dorian. Is God sending a message?
The name Dorian is known mostly thanks to Oscar Wildes famous novel "The Picture of Dorian Grey" It tells a story of a man who had lost his soul to evil. While on the outside he was charming and attractive he was full of sin which manifested on a hidden painting of himself which became hideous and grotesque. A mirror of his soul-

The novel tells of a young man named Dorian Gray, the subject of a painting by artist Basil Hallward. Basil is impressed by Dorian's beauty and becomes infatuated with him, believing his beauty is responsible for a new mode in his art. Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, a friend of Basil's, and becomes enthralled by Lord Henry's world view. Espousing a new hedonism, Lord Henry suggests the only things worth pursuing in life are beauty and fulfilment of the senses. Realizing that one day his beauty will fade, Dorian (whimsically) expresses a desire to sell his soul to ensure the portrait Basil has painted would age rather than he. Dorian's wish is fulfilled, and when he subsequently pursues a life of debauchery, the portrait serves as a reminder of the effect each act has upon his soul, with each sin displayed as a disfigurement of his form, or through a sign of aging.[4]

Is this just coincidence? or is this God condemning hedonism and narcisism? You decide

Well back when they named storms after women only, Doria hit inland areas much like Sandy.
